Fire Prevention Week 2011-Are you ready?

This year Fire Prevention Week will run from October 9-15, 2011. It is during this week that you learn not to play with matches, not to play with any lighters, whether it is a cigarette lighter or a candle lighter. And basically not to play with or around fire at all. You also learn what to do if there is a fire in your home by trying to get out as quickly as possible, and have a designated place outside where all of your family members meet. You also want to make sure your home is well equipped with smoke alarms. Or if you do have plenty of smoke alarms how you need to check the batteries and make sure they work properly.

A few more safety tips they teach you during Fire Prevention Week is how if you ever catch your clothes on fire how you need to stop, drop, and roll. Or if there is lots of smoke in your room how you need to crawl as close to the floor as possible because the smoke rises to the ceiling. Then once you get to the door you'll want to use the back of your hand to test the door knob to make sure the fire isn't right outside your door. If the door is hot, stay in your room and place a towel or piece of clothing outside your window to let someone know you are there. If the door is cool, then cautiously open the door then try to cautiously exit the burning house or building.

During Fire Prevention Week your local firehouse may hold an Open House to teach you about the basics of fire safety, take a ride in a fire truck, pick up a balloon, or try on the fireman’s gear or uniform.

We have the perfect Fireman's helmets and Fireman's badge to wear during an Open House. We have two different styles of Fireman badges. We have a Junior Firefighter Plastic Badge with clip. All you would do is slip the clip down over your shirt pocket. We also have Fire Chief Badges; these also have a plastic clip that would slip down over your shirt. And a Fire Chief Plastic Badge with clip.

We have an assortment of Fire Chief Hats! We have a variety of colors, with a variety of color shields. Our best and most popular hat is the Red Plastic Fire Chief Hat with a blue shield. We also have a Red Plastic Fire Chief with a silver shield. We also have a Red Plastic Fire Chief’s Hat with a cute Dalmatian and a blue shield. For all you girls out there we have a pink version, the Pink Plastic Fire Chief Hat with a cute Dalmatian shield too!

We also have Yellow Plastic Fire Chief Helmets available too. One of the Yellow Plastic Fire Chief Hats has a blue shield; we also have another Yellow Plastic Fire Chief Hat with a silver shield. We also have a White Plastic Fire Chief Hat, one has a blue fire chief shield, and a White Plastic Fire Chief Hat with a silver fire chief shield. The Fire Chief Hat also comes in the color black, we have a Black Plastic Fire Chief Hat, with a blue shield, and a Black Plastic Fire Chief Hat with a silver shield.

If you are looking for little fire chief hats to decorate a table take a look at the Miniature Plastic Fire Chief Hats. Unfortunately, these would be too small to actually wear.

We hoped to have taught you a little about fire safety, and to let you know that we offer fire hats and fire shields at reasonable prices. Enjoy this years Fire Prevention Week!

How To Throw Your Own Oktoberfest Party!

Ladies and Gentlemen it is that time of year again; grab your dirndls and lederhosen. Don’t forget your Tyrolean hat! And get ready for Oktoberfest! Every year there is a large extravaganza held in Munich, Germany. This year (2011) Oktoberfest will run from September 17-October 3, 2011. All you do is go around from tent to tent and drink beer (lots of it) and eat food (lots of that too). You can ride amusement rides, like large swings, roller coasters, and Ferris wheels. You can tour through a haunted house, stop at different game booths. Slide down a water slide. This is literally a 16 day adult carnival celebration.

If you don’t plan on taking a trip to Munich, Germany any time soon you can travel to an Oktoberfest celebration close by or you can throw your own Oktoberfest Party in your own backyard. All you need is good food, good beer, and the right party decorations (allow us to help you out with that).

When throwing an Oktoberfest Party you’ll need the proper apparel. For all you ladies out there take a look at the Plastic Fraulein Vest. For the gentlemen out there we have a PartyCheap Exclusive Costume Lederhosen, or the Oktoberfest Vests.

As far as hats go we have plenty to choose from. You can wear (one of our most popular Oktoberfest sellers) the Green Velour Tyrolean Hat, the Green Velour Alpine Hat, the Forest Green Vel-Felt Alpine Hat, or the Oktoberfest Alpine Hat. If you are looking for a cheaper Alpine Hat take a look at the Assorted Plastic Alpine Hat with Feather or the Oktoberfest Harlequin Hi-Hat. For some funny hats, we have the Headscarf with Braids, the Plush Oktoberfest Barrel Hat, the Plush Beer Mug Hat, and the Plush Oktoberfest Chicken Hat. These are just a few of the Oktoberfest hats that we have available; we have a lot more in our Oktoberfest Costumes Category.

Believe it or not we also have suspenders for Oktoberfest! So if you are partying, and you are having trouble holding up your pants we have Oktoberfest Suspenders and Beer Mug Suspenders.

We have buttons to wear too! It’s All About the Beer Button, Official Beer Tester Button, and our personal favorite, Kiss Me I’m German.

If you want something to throw around your neck we have the Blue Beads with Oktoberfest Medallion, I Pretzel Beer Oktoberfest Beads, Official Beer Tester Oktoberfest Beads, and the Oktoberfest Beads with Mug. If you are looking for some simpler beads to hand out to your guests we have Blue Party Beads, which are sold 12 party beads per package and White Party Beads, which are also sold 12 party beads per package.

Since we have what you’re wearing to your Oktoberfest covered now we need to move onto decorating your room. Let’s start with your table, cover your tables with the Oktoberfest Tablecover, and the Oktoberfest Table Roll. You can even decorate your fruit and cheese tray with the German Flag Picks, and the Oktoberfest Picks. Set your table with the Oktoberfest Paper Plates, the Blue and White Oktoberfest Lunch Plates, Oktoberfest Lunch Napkins, and Oktoberfest Hot/Cold Cups. If you are looking for real glasses to hold your beer we have we have Beer Bottle Glasses. Purchase a couple of the Oktoberfest Pop-Over Centerpieces and set them on your tables. We also have the Oktoberfest Centerpiece, the Beer Mug Centerpiece, the German Flag Cascade Centerpiece, and the Mini German Flag Cascade Centerpiece.

Now that we have your table decorations covered let’s work on hanging Oktoberfest decorations up from the ceiling and hanging Oktoberfest cutouts on the walls. You can start with the Oktoberfest Decorating Kit; this kit has a little bit of everything in it.

Starting with the hanging Oktoberfest decorations we have the Metallic Foil Oktoberfest Banner, the Oktoberfest Whirls, the Oktoberfest Stringer, the Oktoberfest Danglers, the Oktoberfest Cascade Hanging Column, and the Oktoberfest Shimmering Spiral, or the Oktoberfest Shimmer Garland. Or you can just hang up the Jumbo Oktoberfest Whirl up too. There is a giant pretzel at the top that looks yummy enough to eat! If you are looking to decorate a small corner section of your room use the Oktoberfest Party Canopy.

We have some great Oktoberfest cutouts that you can hang on your wall or door. You must take a look at the Beer Stube Sign, Jointed Mr. Oktoberfritz, Jointed Oktoberfest Fraulein, Bavarian Sign Cutout, Bavarian Flag Cutout German Flag Cutout, Oktoberfest Beer Hall Cutout, and the yummy looking Pretzel Cutouts. Don’t be fooled there are also Beer Stein Cutouts too, these look like real beer steins, but they are not, they are only made of a cardstock material.

Now that we have your party decorations covered allow us to help you plan a little with what you’ll be eating and drinking. It is traditional to have beer at your Oktoberfest Party, but if you don’t drink alcohol don’t worry you can supply your guests with non-alcoholic beer, root beer, or any soda. We would like to suggest to you some things to eat during your Oktoberfest Party. In Germany during Oktoberfest they have grilled chicken halves, possibly duck or goose, roasted pork, potato dumplings with red cabbage, roast ox tails, grilled pork knuckles, steamed white veal sausages with sweet mustard, sauerkraut, warm potato salad, potato soup, pretzels, and bread rolls. If these food choices don’t have your mouth watering consider sugar glazed almonds, glazed fruits, cotton candy, and ice cream. So, if you want to have an authentic Oktoberfest party you can offer your guests all of these food choices or just a couple of these food choices especially if you have some picky eaters coming to your party.

Hollywood Themed Classroom

With the popularity of reality TV and pop-star music competitions, a Hollywood themed classroom may be just the trick to motivate your students to reach for the stars. You can make your students feel like a real VIP when they get to walk down the Red Carpet when they receive an award or give them their own Hollywood Star when they complete a project. The Hollywood theme is a fun and unique way to get your students excited about learning.

Come Take A Look At Our Insta-Views

An Insta-View? You may be thinking to yourself-what is that? I’ve never heard of that before. What do you do with it? And how in the world do I use it to decorate? Well, you are in luck! We can answer all of those questions and more.

An Insta-View is basically an instant view. The Insta-View is simply made of a thin plastic material with a printed scene. You can hang it on your wall with double sided tape or thumbtacks. Imagine yourself looking out of a window at the Great Wall of China, being on a beach and looking out of a hut at the Tropical Beach paradise, or looking at an old Western Town scene. The Insta-View measures 38 inches wide by 62 inches long.

Some of the Insta-Views have a double window, where you can make a cut down the middle of the two windows, basically creating two separate windows. To give you an idea of what we are referring to with a double window take a look at the Desert Insta-View, the Asian Insta-View, the Western Insta-View, or the Winter Insta-View. Or you can let the Insta-View together. We also have some Insta-Views that give you the feeling you are looking out through one huge window. For this experience take a look at the Hollywood Insta-View, the Galaxy Insta-View, or the Drive-In Insta-View.

We have some Insta-Views that are more calming and scenic, like the Fireplace Insta-View, the Jungle Insta-View, the Autumn Insta-View, the Tropical Beach Insta-View, the Luau Sunset Insta-View, the Castle Window Insta-View, and the Snowy Christmas Insta-View. Then there are some Insta-Views that are more comical like the Santa Insta-View, and the Crashing Witch Insta-View. There are also some Insta-Views that are a little creepy scary like the PSI Lineup Insta-View, the PSI Laboratory and Morgue Insta-View, the Open Grave Insta-View, the Zombie Attack Insta-View, or the Halloween Horror Insta-View.

So now that we've introduced you to the Insta-View, just remember it is a fun, cheap, quick, and easy way to liven up your walls during your next theme party. We should certainly have an Insta-View for you!
